Biography
Albert Stanley was born in Barnet, Hertfordshire, England in 1932 to a middle-class Anglican and Conservative Party-supporting family. He worked as an economist starting in the late 1950s, working with the Conservative Party's research wing. He was first elected to Parliament in 1990 as MP for Chipping Barnet, and he became party leader prior to the 2010 general election. Stanley was 78 years old at the time of the election, representing the old guard of the Conservative Party; he was a supporter of moderate social conservatism and a cautious degree of economic liberalism, and he campaigned on a platform of patriotism, "compassionate capitalism", and deregulation. At the 2010 general election, the Conservatives won 54.12% of the vote and 16 seats in Parliament, while the Labour Party won 17.24% and 5 seats, the SNP won 16.65% and 5 seats, and the Lib Dems won 11.98% and 4 seats. Stanley succeeded in forming a grand coalition of the Conservatives, Scottish Nationalists, and Liberal Democrats, and he was voted in as Prime Minister in a vote of 22 to 7.
